### Onion Services
If you'd like to run an onion service, you can use the `TOR_HS_PORT` and `TOR_HS_ADDRESS` environment variables. By default, there is a hidden service setup in the docker-compose.yml file.
Example configuration that will run an onion service named "hs" and a web server named "web". This will link the web service to the onion service so that "hs" will forward connections to "web" on port 80. This is done using the `links` configuration feature for docker-compose.
```
hs:
image: antitree/private-tor
expose:
- "80"
environment:
ROLE: HS
# This will create a hidden service that points to
# the service "web" which is runing nginx. You can
# change this to whatever ip or hostname you want
TOR_HS_PORT: "80"
TOR_HS_ADDR: "web"
volumes:
- ./tor:/tor
depends_on:
- da1
- da2
- da3
links:
- web
web:
image: nginx
expose:
- "80"
```
NOTE: By default, this just displays the nginx start page so you may want to replace the image with a more interesting one or configure the nginx container with some static HTML to host.
### Tor configuration
This configuration is based on the Tor documentation for how to run a private tor network. You should also check out [Chutney](https://gitweb.torproject.org/chutney.git/) which does something similar with separate processes instead of containers. If you need to make a modification (such as changing the timing of the DA's) edit the `config/torrc` and/or `config/torrc.da` files. You may need to modify the Dockerfile as well.
